Project Description A Quiet Interval is a self-portrait of the artist, capturing one of the introspective moments commonly experienced during her daily commute to and from art school in Pasadena. Set near dusk, the tranquil blue and purple palette saturates a moment of peaceful decompression, while a balloon—symbolizing the unique aspirations of commuters—floats in place of the setting sun. About the Artist TIFFANY LIN is an illustrator and graphic designer who grew up in Los Angeles and earned a BFA from ArtCenter College of Design. She centers her work on emotion, character, and visual storytelling that unfolds through subtle body language, atmospheric detail, and symbolic objects to evoke quiet tension and narrative depth.
